I had to make 2 more before the season was over. She'd race onto furniture, down on the floor, back on the furniture, back on the floor. over and over. It was really funny.

Re: For animal lovers

Another person who can attest to the lure of boxes, when it comes to cats. Friends and I joke about not buying toys, gadgets or furniture for them...because they prefer the boxes that they came in.

It's not just cardboard boxes...plastic tubs...any kind of "house". I think that's how they relate to them. If they are cardboard, though, and your cats have their front claws, they will rip the edges and corners to literal shreds over time. At least they're cheap to replace! Unlike YOUR furniture...

Re: For animal lovers

Going to see Rosie and Bogie for the first time in 2 months. My daughter too. I must remember when I get there to hug daughter first, hug daughter first.
Then we are driving down with them on Sat. and they will be living with me. But I worry about that because I'm gone all day. Where they are now, they are alone for a couple hours a day, but for the most part, someone is always home with them and there are more people living up there. Down here it's just me.
